2. A configuration for the "Simple Section" document type.
	Chapter 2. Writing a configuration file for XXE

This chapter describes how to write a configuration for the "Simple Section" document type:

The root element of this kind of document is a section. A section starts with a title. It may contain one or more paragraphs or tables. It may also contain nested sections. A paragraph contains text in addition to bold, italic, literal, break and image elements.
The namespace used for the "Simple Section" document type is "http://www.xmlmind.com/ns/sect".

We'll describe 3 variants of the same configuration, one based on a DTD, one based on a W3C XML schema and one based on a RELAX NG schema.

These sample configurations are found in XXE_install_dir/doc/configure/samples/:

dtd_section_config/: The DTD variant.
xsd_section_config/: The W3C XML Schema variant.
rng_section_config/: The RELAX NG variant.

You'll also find in XXE_install_dir/doc/configure/samples/:

topic_plus_tag/

A configuration for a DITA topic specialization. This specialization adds a tag element to the topic DTD. A tag element has a required kind attribute. The values allowed for the kind attribute are: attribute, attvalue, element, emptytag, endtag, genentity, localname, namespace, numcharref,paramentity, pi, prefix, comment, starttag.

This configuration has been created by customizing the stock DITA topic configuration as explained in Chapter 5, Customizing an existing configuration.
